In fact, it's 10,500 already - that's how quickly things are going up. It's over 1000 people dying every day,' Mr Stewart said.\n\n'The spread of the virus in America has been very uneven - so in some states, there hasn't been much of a spread at all.'\n\n'Donald Trump's view is 'don't close down those economies if you don't need to' and the health experts' view is 'shut them down because the virus will get there eventually'.
